I went to the Nevada desert to see one of the world’s biggest AI data center buildouts. It’s so big it was hard to wrap my mind around. Downriver is the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe and the data centers’ water and power consumption could put their land at risk www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

California shut down its last coal plant last week and nobody even noticed, it made so little little difference. Meanwhile solar is up 17% and gas is down 17% from 2024. I have a few highlights... www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/ding-dong-...

Zillow, the country’s largest real estate listings site, has quietly removed a feature that showed the risks from extreme weather for more than one million home sale listings on its site.

NEW: There is a nearly universal scientific consensus that building more fossil fuel infrastructure will lock in more emissions exactly when we need to cut them. Six Democratic governors are joining the GOP to push more anyway. IPS scholar @basavsen.bsky.social in @truthout.org:

The administration plans to abolish a Biden-era federal ban on oil and gas drilling within 10 miles of the Chaco Culture National Historical Park. Read the full story here: news.oilandgaswatch.org/post/trump-w...

Today, the California coast we cherish and the delicate ocean ecosystems just beyond it face a renewed threat from offshore drilling. We oppose the Trump Administration’s 5-year oil and gas leasing program and will continue to defend our coastline, wildlife, economy, and health from this threat.

Fire at the #COP30 venue today. All participants were safely evacuated and there were no injuries reported. Thank you to the first responders and Brazilian authorities for the quick action.

"Finance, fossil fuels & forests" are key issues at at this year's U.N. climate talks.

#COP30 is the first climate summit after the historic climate rulings by the International Court of Justice & the InterAmerican Court of Human Rights. It must be a turning point: ❌ No more voluntary pledges ❌ No more delay ❌ No more impunity. It’s time to close the accountability gap.

EPA just proposed a new WOTUS rule that would reduce Clean Water Act protections. But U.S. surface waters are already imperiled & need more protections - not less. EDGI has analyzed EPA data showing how surface water pollution is increasing. Learn more: envirodatagov.org/surface-wate...

Rather than working "to stabilize the climate" at 1.5 degrees Celsius of warming, "we are actually going to a trajectory to have an increase in temperature of 2.8 Celsius,” says Susana Muhamad, former Colombian environment minister, speaking from the #COP30 conference.

Jean Su warns that the booming AI industry’s high resource consumption threatens the world’s climate goals, despite rosy prognoses of AI’s projected benefits.

The Trump administration is planning to open the California coast to new offshore oil leases for the first time in decades. But it's not clear if any oil companies actually want to drill: www.latimes.com/environment/... via @hayleysmith.bsky.social

Exclusive by me: A quarter of the world’s population lives within three miles (5km) of operational fossil fuel projects, threatening the health of more than 2bn people as well as critical ecosystems, according to first-of-its-kind research. @amnesty.org www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Another delay while Hochul and certain Dems in the Assembly listen to fossil-fuel interests and building developers. “'This is purely a political maneuver,' said Michael Hernandez, New York policy director at electrification advocacy nonprofit Rewiring America." @rewiringamerica.bsky.social

A gas pipeline that would run off the coast of New York City is one step closer to being built. It would dredge up contaminants from the seabed and disturb marine habitats.

The town board in Lansing, New York, is considering a temporary ban on large-scale development that could delay construction of a data center.

with the end of the shutdown looming, here's my look for @wired.com into what life has been like for EPA employees over the past five weeks: little to no heads up about who was getting furloughed next, important projects getting put on the back burner while deregulation moves forward:

NEWS: CBS News gutted its climate team as part of the big Paramount layoffs this week. These journalists had been doing incredible reporting on extreme heat, flooding, clean energy investments and more. I've got details for Climate-Colored Goggles: www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/cbs-news-g...

“We need to do the right thing for the next generation.” — home energy fair volunteer Rachel Kutzley

I wanted to offer some thoughts on the Gates climate memo that has been circulating this week. While I can't directly speak for others, I can say that my own response is one of dismay & deep frustration (and that this view is shared by many climate/Earth scientists). [1/n]

The NIH has insisted there are no banned words But, an analysis by @jeremymberg.bsky.social found over 700 hundred grants changed their titles from '24 to '25 Some see it as a small price to pay to keep their grant, but others are worried about what comes next www.statnews.com/2025/10/29/n...

NEW: Salt water laced with cancer-causing chemicals, a byproduct of oil and gas drilling, keeps shooting out of the ground in Oklahoma. Experts say it means even more wastewater is spreading underground, poisoning the state’s water supply.
